What do Surgical Assistants do?
A surgical assistant is a skilled practitioner who has undergone formalized education and training as a surgical assistant.
The surgical assistant performs surgical functions that include, but are not limited to, retracting, manipulating, suturing, clamping, cauterizing, ligating, and tying tissue; suctioning, irrigating, and sponging; positioning the patient; closing body planes and skin; and participating in hemostasis and volume replacement.
Surgical assistants are certified and registered or licensed by the state, or, in states without licensure, certified as surgical assistants by completing appropriate education and training.
